Adidas Superstar 1

Adidas Superstar 1

Originally introduced in 1969, It became the shoe Kareem Abdul Jabbar as well as most of the NBA made iconic in the 70s and 80s.

The Superstar was later tweaked by Adidas to create the Superstar 2 which was designed specifically as a fashion sneaker.

The originals can be, and still are, worn as a daily kick but with the originals you know you’re wearing the same shoes as the NBA greats.

The original superstars are a little harder to find then the Superstar IIs, but there are a few retailers that still carry them.

Compared to the $80-90 retail price I found a few very fair retailers too!

Everyone seems to be blowing out the NBA team specific shoes. So, if you’re team is on sale you’re in luck.
Otherwise though I was still able to find them at about half of retail at Amazon and Shoe Metro.
